Las Vegas was built on groundwater. Before the Hoover Dam, before the pipelines, settlers here survived thanks to natural springs fed by water slowly flowing down from the Spring Mountains.
In this video, filmed at historic Western High School and the original Las Vegas Springs, we show how groundwater still plays a vital role in Southern Nevada’s water supply.
You’ll see:
💧 How water collects in the mountains and travels underground to the valley
💧 The history of the Las Vegas Springs and their importance to early settlers
💧 How wells are drilled and water is pumped
💧 How safe yields and flow rates are tested to protect our aquifers
💧 How groundwater is delivered into the Las Vegas Valley Water District’s distribution system
Groundwater remains a crucial part of the Las Vegas water supply, and we show you how it's pulled out of the ground and makes it way to your tap.
